Scanners Reviews

external linkIntriguing idea is given plodding treatment making it hard to stay interested. Not nearly as entertaining as most of its sequels. [read review] 2/4

external linkStill, it's a classic and it certainly blew people away when it showed up in cinemas in the waning months of the Carter Era. [read review]
